一、高斯 Quotations, Carl Friedrich Gauss
https://mathshistory.st-andrews.ac.uk/Biographies/Gauss/quotations/
If others would but reflect on mathematical truths as deeply and continuously as I have, they would make my discoveries.
如果其他人能像我一样深入而持续地思考数学真理,他们就会做出我的发现。
... durch planmässiges Tattonieren.
[... through systematic, palpable experimentation.]
[Asked how he came upon his theorems]
Quoted in A L Mackay, Dictionary of Scientific Quotations (London 1994)
[…通过系统、明显的实验。]
(被问到他是怎么得出定理的)
You know that I write slowly. This is chiefly because I am never satisfied until I have said as much as possible in a few words, and writing briefly takes far more time than writing at length
Quoted in G Simmons Calculus Gems (New York 1992).
你知道我写得很慢。这主要是因为,除非我用几句话尽可能多地说出来,否则我永远不会满意,而简短的写作比长时间的写作要花更多的时间
God does arithmetic.
We must admit with humility that, while number is purely a product of our minds, space has a reality outside our minds, so that we cannot completely prescribe its properties a priori.
Letter to Bessel, 1830.
上帝做算术。
我们必须谦逊地承认,虽然数字纯粹是我们头脑的产物,但空间在我们头脑之外有一个现实,所以我们不能完全先验地规定它的属性。
I have had my results for a long time: but I do not yet know how I am to arrive at them.
Quoted in A Arber The Mind and the Eye 1954.
我得到我的结果已经有了很长一段时间:但我还不知道如何得出这些结果。
It is not knowledge, but the act of learning, not possession but the act of getting there, which grants the greatest enjoyment. When I have clarified and exhausted a subject, then I turn away from it, in order to go into darkness again; the never-satisfied man is so strange if he has completed a structure, then it is not in order to dwell in it peacefully,but in order to begin another. I imagine the world conqueror must feel thus, who, after one kingdom is scarcely conquered, stretches out his arms for others.
Letter to Bolyai, 1808.
给予最大享受的不是知识,而是学习的行为,不是拥有,而是到达那里的行为。当我澄清并穷尽一个主题后,我就会转身离开它,以便再次陷入黑暗;一个永不满足的人很奇怪,如果他已经完成了一个结构,那么他不是为了平静地生活在其中,而是为了开始另一个。我想世界征服者一定有这样的感觉,在一个王国几乎没有被征服后,他会为其他国家伸出双臂。
Finally, two days ago, I succeeded - not on account of my hard efforts, but by the grace of the Lord. Like a sudden flash of lightning, the riddle was solved. I am unable to say what was the conducting thread that connected what I preiously knew with what made my success possible.
Quoted in H Eves Mathematical Circles Squared (Boston 1972).
最后,两天前,我成功了——不是因为我的努力,而是因为主的恩典。就像一道突如其来的闪电,谜题被解开了。我无法说出是什么将我之前所知道的与我成功的原因联系起来。
Mathematics is concerned only with the enumeration and comparison of relations.
Quoted in E T Bell, The development of mathematics (New York, 1945).
数学只关心关系的列举和比较。

高斯在数论、代数学、非欧几里得几何学、微分几何学、超几何级数、复变函数论以及椭圆函数论等方面均有一系列开创性贡献。
高斯涉足天文学始于小行星的研究。
1816年起,高斯把数学应用从天体转向大地。
19世纪30年代起,高斯的注意力转向磁学,

https://blog.sciencenet.cn/blog-107667-1349735.html
现在看来,希尔伯特提出的理论确实富有天才,不少地方还具有相当的直观性。
要是问他为什么要研究物理学,他总是说,对物理学家来说,物理学太难了,需要客观公正、根基雄厚的数学帮助他。
